Lubricant Analysis Kits

Send in samples of your grease,oil, or coolant, and get back a full report on the condition of both your lubricant and equipment. Samples are tested within 24 hours of arrival at the lab, and the results are emailed to you. If the lab discovers critical conditions, they will call you to provide guidance on how to address the problem. Kit includes six bottles with labels, so you can test multiple samples.

Analysis includes ferrography for traces of metal that indicate wear; infrared spectroscopy for soot,nitrogen, and other signs of oxidation; and an elemental analysis for contaminants, such as water or fuel.

Kit for testing coolant withglycol is for coolant used in most engines—it includes a test of the percentage of glycol to make sure there's the right amount in your coolant.
